Revision as of 16:27, 30 November 2020

The Pete and Karl Show (better known as T-PAKS) is an ongoing experiment in high-energy literature conducted by Karl Jones and [REDACTED].

History

Early theoretical models of T-PAKS emerged in the 2018-2019 era.

Rapid quantum-semiotic advances in 2020 lead to the discovery of the first T-PAKS Gnomon algorithm on the afternoon of Monday, 30 November 2020, during a conversation (voice only) between Karl Jones and [REDACTED].

Episodes

For convenience, episodes are arranged by funding potential in present-moment Euclidean space.

Patreon

Patreon subscribers pay small amounts monthly for recurring content

  • Comic strip -
    • Gnomon Chronicles - mix of history and crazy fiction
    • On This Day in History - straight up true history, no crazy, but to be re-used in the Chronicles
    • "Golden Illustrated History" - like "On This Day in History", but more story-telling style, like Golden Illustrated comics

Gnomon Chronicles to illustrate

Here are some of my favorite Chronicles which need iconic illustrations.

Miscellaneous
Stamp misprints

Postage stamp misprints are funny. Here are two. (Note: station wagons are also funny.)

SS Minnow

SS Minnow (TV series) - "What appears to be a secret death camp on an uncharted Caribbean island run by Nazi officers during the Second World War in collusion with an unlicensed military industrial criminal transdimensional corporation based in the White House ⁠— is actually a highly realistic cover story for psycho-medical experiments of Lovecraftian dimensions involving the fictional yet illegal transdimensional drug Clandestiphrine." - need scenes, story ideas, spinoff shows, pseudo-merchandise

Paperclip Squid

Cretaceous Office Supplies rated very highly on Twitter - people either love cute anthropomorphized animals, or they hate 'em, either way good material for us.

Dennis Hopper

I have an obsession with fictional Dennis Hopper movies ...

CSI parodies

Lots of comedic gold here, people love those shows and the format is spoof-ready, just change the location or the crime or whatever grammatical part goes after the colon.

CSI: Reptile Gastrointestinal Unit - Pilot: "Bite the Hand That Feeds You" - When a Florida alligator bites the hand off a Mafia hitman with a different high-value fingerprint spliced onto each of his fingers, the RGU must slither into action.

Baby Yoda and Werner Herzog

#BabyYoda is big now. We should parodize the hell out of it. Play up Werner Herzog, he is a freaking Rock Star ... we need to meet him, get him into the Chronicles on a first-name basis.
